Offshore operations
A number of INTERTANKO Members operate shuttle tankers, Floating Production, Storage and Offshore (FPSO) units and Floating Storage Units (FSU) in offshore areas around the world.
Operation of these types of tankers is different to normal tanker operations. To assist Members that operate these types of tankers, INTERTANKO has established an Offshore Tanker Committee to represent the interests of these types of tanker, provide regulatory updates affecting these types of tankers, exchange information on the operation of these types of tankers and develop training programs to address common safety issues on these types of tankers.
